Default Mail Size Restriction

Your ISP is wrong. There is no limit with OE. Since you altered the error
message it is harder to pin down, but it is either a restriction from your
ISP, or more likely in this case, the recipient probably has a mailbox size
limit and that was exceeded.

Hi

When I try to send jpg images which are 5MB in size from Outlook Express,
I get an error message like that below

"The following message to was undeliverable.
The reason for the problem:
5.1.0 - Unknown address error 552-'MAIL
max. message size exceeded"

When I contacted my ISP, they advised that the max. size of mail from OE
is 5MB.
Is this a restriction within OE or is it a restriction applied by my ISP??

If these restrictions cannot be removed, is there any way around this
issue so that I can send large image files?

Thanks
